The Tycoon's Enchanted Mermaid-Chapter 173 - : Playtime
Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Playtime
Gazes intertwined, a provocative ambience enveloped the entire diminutive ferris wheel cabin.
His eyelashes were distinct and fine, his eyes dark as the night. Ah Da wasn’t foolish; she could naturally sense his intentions in this moment.
The surrounding seemed to quiet down, he didn’t move, as if waiting for her, his scent like that of a snow-capped cedar forest, exuding a faint chill, pleasant, with a subtle fragrance that was intoxicating.
Ah Da, as if possessed, reached out her hand, her fingers lightly brushing his eyelashes. They were soft and springy, slightly curled upwards.
“Hmm?”
Her hand was caught. Ah Da’s gaze fell into his eyes, the black orbs holding a deeper emotion than before, making her heartbeat thunderous, starting to panic.
Qin Yu pinched her unruly “paw,” his arm pulling her closer, leaning in to ask her, “What are you trying to do?”
Ah Da looked at his magnified handsome face, her breath skipping a half-beat, and replied honestly, “…Your eyelashes, they’re very long.”
As she said this, she couldn’t help but reach out again to touch them, but was blocked. She then boldly shifted to touch his cheek and chin.
Qin Yu squinted at her but didn’t stop her.
Remembering how Qin Yu often pinched her chin and cheeks, Ah Da couldn’t resist doing the same, pinching his chin and raising it slightly.

Qin Yu even cooperated by tilting his head up a bit, though his expression showed no sign of vulnerability, maintaining the demeanor of a king in control, the corners of his eyes hinting at a laugh, as if indulging the whims of a little prey, waiting for her to have enough fun before gently lifting his “hunter’s paw” to press the little prey down and devour her.
Ah Da was dizzy with control and beauty, completely unaware of the danger she had fallen into.
The feel of his smooth and delicate skin, the sharp and fluid lines of his nose, thin lips, the irresistible curvature of his jaw and face—she had always been astounded by his looks, but now that she was actually touching him, it felt real.
The young girl was serious, playing happily, touching from his forehead to his nose, and from his nose to his chin.
As she lingered on his mouth, the man suddenly chuckled lowly, his thin lips parting slightly to bite the tip of her finger, his expression turning somewhat cold, startling Ah Da and causing her hand to tremble.
The hand she wanted to withdraw was caught, and then pressed against his Adam’s apple, sliding in her palm as he spoke.
“Why not continue?”
Ah Da’s cheeks burned like fire. Her hand in his was led to caress his neck and was even about to continue downwards…
How could he…
Her pale fingers slowly glided across every bit of skin, sparking like lightning, making the air in the cabin grow scorchingly hot.
Overwhelmed, Ah Da protested, “No, I can’t…”
She clenched her fingers tightly and pushed him forcefully away, daring not to go on.
Although they were in mid-air, the cabin was surrounded by transparent glass, and the people on the ground, as well as other tourists in the same ferris wheel cabin, could see them.
Qin Yu also somewhat overestimated his self-control. This was indeed not the place to proceed, he released her and brought her closer again, leaning in to whisper in her ear with a chuckle.
“Weren’t you very bold just now?”
Ah Da was embarrassed. She, too, had been bewitched, suddenly consumed by a bout of madness, and hadn’t expected him to be utterly shameless, directly guiding her hand downwards.
Qin Yu, observing her ruby-like little ears up close, spoke again, “If you want, when we get back home…”
“Don’t say any more!”
Ah Da covered his mouth, her eyes like two gems against the night sky, her stunning face filled with annoyance and astonishment.
If she didn’t stop him, there was no telling what he might say next. Ah Da let go, stood up, and sat opposite Qin Yu, creating some distance, and started taking photos with her phone again.
Flustered, her actions betrayed an attempt to cover her inner turmoil.
As the cabin slowly descended, Ah Da took a last few shots of the riverside scenery. As soon as the cabin door opened, she stepped out first, with a queue of men and women still lining up outside.
Many eyes followed her, but Ah Da was used to it. The staff member pulled back the barrier, and as she walked out, she didn’t forget to bring along Qin Yu.
After moving away from the crowd at the entrance, Ah Da turned her head and looked at the Ferris wheel, with Qin Yu standing by her side.
“What else would you like to play?”
Ah Da flashed him a smile, turned her head to look around, and suddenly, her gaze stopped on something to the left. Qin Yu looked over, and for a moment, he was silent.
The children’s version of the Dragon God roller coaster was playing childish nursery rhymes, the sound of its chimes ringing as it went over a low artificial hill.
Sure enough, the next second, the young girl was pulling on his hand, “That looks so much fun, let’s go play.”
People around watched as a tall man, almost two meters tall, was being dragged along by a petite girl.
The roller coaster had a particularly large crowd of onlookers, and Ah Da had to stand on tiptoes just to see it. Inside, there were artificial streams and hills, and the entrance displayed two ticket prices—fifteen for children, twenty-five for adults—to ride around twice in a small car.
Qin Yu’s expression was somewhat cracked, his handsome face stiff as an ice block, prompting the surrounding crowd to quietly step back a few paces.
Ah Da immediately stopped insisting that he join her in the fun.
Forget it, forget it, this game didn’t quite match the distinguished Mr. Qin’s style; she couldn’t force him to do something against his will.
Ah Da went to buy a ticket for herself, then returned and stuffed her phone into Qin Yu’s hand, “If you get bored, you can take a few photos for me later.”
Qin Yu glanced at her and took the phone.
Ah Da offered a radiant smile, turned around, and dashed off to get in line. Her snow-white dress hem and long hair fluttered in the breeze, making her seem like an exuberant and adorable little swan.
The queue looked long, but actually moved quickly. The roller coaster could carry twenty people at a time. After getting on, Ah Da found that all the other riders were girls just like her.
Even their boyfriends were on the periphery taking pictures and holding their bags. Qin Yu was particularly conspicuous among the crowd. Seeing him look at her, Ah Da immediately waved.
“Beep beep beep, da da da…”
The roller coaster’s music intro started, slowly picking up speed. Ah Da gripped the handrails tightly, the wind rushing past her face as she sped over the hill.
It looked low from the ground, but once seated and speeding along, it surprisingly felt thrilling.
Screams came from ahead and behind.
Ah Da squinted her eyes, absorbed in the joy of the ride, without any concern for Qin Yu outside.
In the blink of an eye, the two laps were over, and the staff undid the safety catch. Ah Da walked out and immediately ran towards Qin Yu, her smile never leaving her face.
“Qin Yu…”
The young girl ran towards him, and Qin Yu’s heart felt indescribably stirred, unable to suppress the throbbing within.
Ah Da hugged his waist, looked up at him, and shared, “The roller coaster just now was so much fun, it felt like flying. I wasn’t scared at all.”
Qin Yu pushed down the hair that was lifted by the wind and gently stroked it to smooth it out, “Well, do you want to play again?”
“No need, once is enough.” Ah Da took his hand, “Let’s go check out something else.”
They had walked only a few steps when Ah Da saw a row of little stands not far away, selling various small trinkets.
Qin Yu, knowing she liked these things, pulled her over, and within minutes, Ah Da’s hands were full of items—a dolphin plushie, a sunflower balloon, and a sugar figurine.
The sugar figurine was made in their likeness.
“You really don’t want to eat it?”
Ah Da pursed her lips around the sugar figurine made to look like Qin Yu, her eyes turning towards the man beside her who was merely looking at the candy he held.
“Sweet,” he frowned.
Ah Da smacked her lips and agreed, “Indeed, it’s very sweet.”
